This weekend as I was getting ready for our date night (We went to a nice Italian restaurant and ordered something completely wrong--we split it-- that neither of us really liked...but still enjoyed ourselves), I was looking around our little apartment here and realized there are many things that 1) I just absolutely love or 2) Make my life a whole lot easier or a combination of both of those. I decided to compile a list of these items so when, as the song says the dog bites, I can return to this list and "not feel so bad!" :)
In no particular order:
1. Our apartment (which includes washer and dryer hookups)
2. My Yankee Macintosh candles, of course.

4. Date nights with my husband.


7. The dishwasher.
8. Burt's Bee's lip shimmer chapstick

10. This cookbook! (thanks Blythes....I use it a lot)


12. Our couch that was such a steal.
13. Old books -
-My old copy of The Grapes of Wrath that mom and dad gave me last year.

- The Unhappy Hippopotamus that I got when grandma Schoon moved out of her apartment!


16. My awesome cookware (we had just had fajitas! yum!)

18. My "Katsma" hoody that says "Eagles Basketball" that Renae gave me (wearing it right now)
19. Our red table and chairs that grandma and grandpa refinished

What a fun post and very random list!
A few household things that come to mind for which I'm thankful: Crockpot, bins/baskets to stash N's toys, my church pew where we put on our shoes each morning, my humidifier (with both pregnancies, I've had a seriously stuffy nose the whole time), and my white board where I write down my daily lists.
I am going to copy!! I loved it. to tell you the truth, I thought of doing something like that today....
made the cancellation for that weekend...it will be a MK valentines day!!! I am looking forward to it. It may be a short weekend, but it will be totally worth it.
